The Center for the Built Environment and Infrastructure Studies (CBEIS) is conceived as an exchange of people, ideas, departments and building methodology. By housing multiple design and engineering disciplines under one roof, CBEIS promotes interactivity among constituent student and faculty from the School of Architecture and Planning, Department of Civil Engineering and Institute of Transportation. As a gateway site on the campus periphery, CBEIS also mediates between the developed edge of Perring Parkway on one side and the bucolic natural setting of Herring Run on the other.

On February 1st, 1960, four young men from North Carolina A&T State University entered the F.W. Woolworth department store in downtown Greensboro, North Carolina and sat at the lunch counter. What followed was a movement that has had a resounding impact across the decades and around the world. The Woolworth building and the lunch counter were the flashpoint for the “Sit-in” movement in the United States. These architectural elements - important historical artifacts - have been restored to form the framework and nucleus of the exhibits at the ICRCM.

The 60,263 sqf program for the North Carolina A&T State University Proctor School of Education is comprised primarily of classroom and office space. The desire to create an interactive social hub throughout the facility plays a key role in organizing student/faculty lounge spaces, conference, and the public circulation. Beyond the program need, the project has aspirations to recognize and express the history of the School of Education as well as its potential future role within the University. The program also takes an additional step in fulfilling the Master Plan goals of the University by further defining the central green space of the campus.
